Epilogue || Kiyotaka & Suzune

I cried writing their vows.

| | BOUND | |

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, get your ass up we've been banging on your door for ten minutes." A voice called out on the phone as Kiyotaka had just risen from his bed.

Why were people banging on his apartment door? Is what he was thinking. And then he looked over to the left of his bed where his calendar was.

There is was - circled in a bright pen with the words WEDDING DAY written above it. June 7th, today is the day where both Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Horikita Suzune become a true family. And of course, their friends were there supporting them along the way.

Groggily, Kiyotaka opened the front door to let everyone in. All of a sudden, Yosuke, Akito, Keisei, Ken, Kanji, Manabu and - surprisingly - Kakeru (who said he wasn't going to show up to the wedding) piled into his apartment.

"God-! How do you wake up looking this good?!" Ike exclaimed and then cleared his throat, "I mean- I'm not uh gay or anything, not that it's a problem of course and you know I have a girlfriend - soon to be engaged..." He started rambling in defence because everyone gave him a funny look.

"Oh yeah, you bought the ring yet Kanji?" Ken asked.

"You bet! I carry it on me at all times so I don't forget where I put it... but even so it really doesn't top the power couple of Class A's engagement ring. How much did you even spend on that?"

"I bought it at the end of our third year so I didn't really spend money on it but just left over points."

"Oh yeah, I remember you asking us for all of our points near the end of the year, how many did you even get?"

"Around 16 million." He had not only asked people from their class but also other classes, "The ring was 15.5 million (£82.5k) I was surprised when I even found the store, I wasn't expecting their to be such an expensive jewellery store."

"Damnn..."

"Since the first time I met you I wanted you to be Suzune's other half, I'm glad it happened." Manabu smiled, nodding to himself at the fact that the constant praying for Kiyotaka and Suzune to end up together worked.

"I brought food." Akito said, holding up bags from McDonald's and waving them around, "This is a great talk and all but I'd rather not eat cold food..."

Kiyotaka checked the time and noticed he still had roughly two hours to get ready and be at the reception by. He hadn't seen his soon to be wife since yesterday morning as Kei and Haruka dragged her out of their apartment since it's 'bad luck to see the bride before the wedding'. He was excited, but also scared to finally become family because one thing simply ran through his mind - "What if I turn out to be the father my own father was?"

Truth be told, he knew it wouldn't happen but he knew that both him and Suzune wanted children - two little mini her and Kiyotaka's running around the house - which only hit him that he might just need to move out the tiny apartment that they share. He remembered joking about children saying that he wanted ten of them after Suzune asked how many he would want and he smiled unknowingly.

"I know you're getting married today but you're grinning like mad and that's not normal for you Kiyotaka." Ken shuddered, biting into his McMuffin.

"Apologies, I just recalled a moment from high school." He said, also eating what was given to him.

"Are you nervous?" Yosuke asked.

"Nervous?"

He thought about it for a moment and then he noticed that his leg was moving up and down under the table, he noticed that his fist was clenched in his lap and he noticed that his heart was stammering in his chest.
